[Evolution] contacts display, but not fully functional....

[Joe Barnett <jbarnett Stanford EDU>]

Hi there:

I've compiled evolution from CVS source last updated a few days ago, and
had similar problems with previous builds.  I updated my addressbook.db
to db3 using db3_upgrade, and am now able to view and autocomplete my
contacts.  I'm running a debian SID system, with the following libdb
related packages installed:
$dpkg -l *libdb* |grep -v none
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
|
Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
||/ Name           Version       
+++-==============-==============
ii  libdb2         2.7.7-8        
ii  libdb2-util    2.7.7-8        
ii  libdb3         3.2.9-10       
ii  libdb3++       3.2.9-10       
ii  libdb3++-dev   3.2.9-10       
ii  libdb3-dev     3.2.9-10       
ii  libdb3-util    3.2.9-10       

The following things don't work, however:

1) right clicking on an email address will bring up the "querying
addressbook" pop-up, but will never successfully find anyone in the
addressbook.  If I add a user to addressbook in this way, I can no
longer access the Contacts menu...  (reports something like Inbox ==>
Inbox, or Drafts ==> Drafts, or Calendar ==> Calendar when I click on
the Contacts in the folders  sidebar).  It will also sometimes crash the
addressbook component the next time I right click on an address.

2) if i try to delete a contact, addressbook component crashes with the
following attached backtrace.

<I get these same errors whether I use my old (upgraded to db3)
addressbook, or whether i clear out the ~/evolution/local/Contacts
directory, and let evolution autogenerate its own contact list>
